I saw it once when i was at Uni in the 90´s with a very crappy VHS copy. And i never thought about it again till the lovely people at coilhouse mentioned it several months ago. Well done
Mr Majestyk. Starring Charles Bronson. Playing a melon farmer in N. Cali. Repeatedly says the line "Look, I just wanna pick my melons." And y'know, he's Charles Bronson so you KNOW he's got melons.
Since no-one seems to have mentioned it thus far, La Antena, a German Expressionist film about a city that gives up its voice, which was actually made in Argentina in 2007.
And Nothing Lasts Forever, also black-and-white, from 1984, written and directed by a former SNL writer, with Bill Murray as the driver of a bus that transports the elderly to the moon.
Ok, so maybe the assembled throng here is a little more likely to have seen this one. It's worth watching though, and weirdly may be best dubbed into English - gasp! The English dub that I saw had Andrew Sachs providing all the voices, and it was very wrong indeed.
If you don't know Mr. S and his jolly and sunny works, it might worth visiting youtube...
"The Exploding Girl" is a nicely subtle character study with Zoe Kazan playing the titular college student on summer break with a best friend who might/might not become something more. Beautiful images, wonderful performances.
